                           along the Mount Wilson to El Diente traverse. The first part of the traverse 
                           is clearly seen, down the Mount Wilson summit ridge, then down 
                           the gully and back onto the ridge along the obvious route in the picture."/>

                  caption="The Wilson Peak crux. The easier route follows (on the right side) the distinct, 
                           narrow crack that starts in a brown, sand/gravel area and angels slightly right to hit 
                           the horizon ridge near a small, but distinct &quot;dip&quot; in the ridge. 
                          (This dip is about half way up on the visible part of the ridge in the picture.) 
                           From this point the route is easier and follows the main ridge to the summit."/>
